Interesting peculiarity: from 1904 till 1985 Eintracht didn’t feature in 1 Bundesliga for only three seasons. After that it took them 28 years to promote to the top league of the country. Still in 2013/2014 season they tumbled out again.
Did you know that… 1986 Ballon d’Or winner Ihor Belanov performed for Eintracht from 1991 till 1994 (67 matches, 21 goals).
We’ve already faced them…
In 1977 Dynamo were outplayed by Eintracht in the UEFA Cup round of 64 (1:1, 0:0).
